If you’re visiting the Plastec West show in Anaheim, Calif., Feb. 6-8 (co-located with MD&M West and other concurrent exhibitions), you can preview the upcoming R16 version of Moldex3D molding simulation from Moldex3D Northern America, Farmington Hills, Mich. (booth 4033). The full release will arrive in early March.

Here are some highlights of the new release that you can see demonstrated at the show:

Faster simulation: Reduces filling/packing simulation processing time by up to 30%. Supports automatic generation of non-matched solid meshes for the entire moldbase and its components, including the mold plates, inserts, etc.
